He ended up looking for me throughout the night and even found me at one point and said he was looking for me, there had been several songs he wanted to dance with me to and he couldn't find me. We did dance twice and he then wanted to have a conversation to find out what had changed so much for me in the past couple of weeks. That I seemed happy and content, that I must have someone new in my life, etc. I never gave him a straight answer, just told him I had come to peace with it all and wanted to be friends. Was tired of the animosity and fighting and really just wanted to exist in a friendly way with him. It was very late, so I said I needed to go up to my room and get some sleep, so I ended the conversation.
!!! That is so WONDERFUL! You rock!
As far as the "gay" talk, really don't worry about it. I don't get that about him at all.
